Off to vote for Labour in Reading East later tonight - very happy surprise when it swung in 2017 (previously pretty safe Tory). The Cons have had the big guns out, by which I mean the Maybot, but have given my house a wide birth since I told them in the 2015 election that I thought a referundum on EU membership was a ridiculous idea and I'd never vote for a party that suggested it.
I noticed a real Labour momentum in 2017 locally that I haven't this time around, particularly I think as a backlash to Brexit (Lab candidate is very pro-remain), but I'm hoping they can hold it.

I'm voting after work, super safe labour so no bother. Been pestering my Dad and sister in Reading where it'll make a difference, both off to vote Labour later, Dad, who'll be voting for the first time at 60 odd, says he's had local Labour people round and offering him a lift to the polling station, which is good. Sister says Hugh Grant's been in town with the local candidate, which is also good, only 3000ish votes in it last time.
